On April 13 and 16, 2021 from 9:00am-12:00pm (PST), the Schwab Learning Center (SLC) will host its first-ever virtual speaker series.
Expert scientists, educators and students will present the latest research and discuss personal experiences with learner variability (ADHD, dyslexia and other learning differences).
Our theme in April is Learner Variability and Higher Education and our goal for this event aligns with the SLC’s vision to eradicate stigma and create opportunity..
It will be a landmark gathering that further shifts attention away from the stigma of learning disabilities toward a new worldview of learner variability as a strength.
We help students with learner variability understand how they learn and leverage their strengths. We offer customized strategies to maximize potential in the classroom, workplace and beyond.
The Schwab Learning Center is committed to teaching individuals to understand their learning history, their unique cognitive strengths and recommends strategies to optimize potential across the lifespan.
The basic definition of learner variability is that all individuals are unique in how they learn. Each student brings a different learner profile to the classroom or workplace environment.
